Full of warmth and everyday comfort, this inviting home offers a flexible layout that can easily adapt to a variety of needs.

The floor plan includes a first-floor bedroom, a full bath, and an additional room that can serve as a playroom, home office, formal dining room, or fourth bedroom. A back mudroom with windows overlooking the partially fenced backyard adds both charm and function, while the layout also offers the convenience of single-level living if desired.

North Deering, located between Back Cove and Presumpscot River, is a residential and wooded Portland neighborhood with broad conservation land and low-slung mid-century streetscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Allen Avenue corridor near the Pine Tree Shopping Center, where everyday errands cluster beside a steady flow of local traffic. Ranches and split-levels mix with newer infill, while long tree lines and stone walls keep the pace quiet. Evergreen Cemetery reads like a landscaped park, and the Presumpscot River Trail adds a nature-forward routine. Community touchstones include the Portland Trails network, Riverside Golf Course, and the historic grounds of Evergreen Cemetery.
